    So, assuming that a claim was made back way back when, and an assessment was carried out, but never paid (was he self employed?), then the CSA would have a valid claim against the estate - which they would then pass on to your mother. If however, no assessment was ever made, then it is too late.

    didnt change ant user name, that was my sister, and if you read previous posts in this thread i have stated many times that she did originally get the csa involved, and no story has changed, take a look back it was other people assoming further down the thread that she had not contacted csa originally when we were young

  • Cheza, you are 25 and I understand you don't even want or need the money. Your Dad didn't do right by you or your sisters, love him as much as you did, he didn't. Full stop. Your Mum did,no doubt she had to make sacrifices, whether she had help or not. It sounds to me like she is due the child support now. She was really due it 20 years ago when she was bringing you up without the support of your Dad, times you won't remember. Perhaps she shouldn't have even had to ask this of you and your sisters? As always, there are two sides to every story.
  • CSA during the time your Mum was claiming, the CSA were not efficient, to say the least, still are not totally, but they are better. I have a friend who has a 21 year old son who gave up with the CSA, but with no luck, 20 years ago. It isn't right, but the Dad didn't pay a penny towards the son who is now going to uni, supported by the Mum and her new partner
